Bruder Toy Replacement Fork

thingiverse

This item serves as a replacement fork designed specifically for certain Bruder toys. The Cat version of this fork is engineered to fit the Cat skid steer loader, while the Linde version is crafted to fit not only the Linde lift truck but also the JLG telescopic forklift. The primary difference between these two versions lies in the width of the hook at the top. I took inspiration from the original design and made the main fork body thinner due to its inability to fit certain toy pallets, a factor that did not appear to compromise the structural integrity of the fork. These parts were printed using Hatchbox polycarbonate with soluble support. The need for support stems from the tapered shape of the fork body. Upon completion, the resulting part exhibits comparable or even superior sturdiness compared to the original toy fork, showcasing a slightly increased stiffness. Edit: Both forks have been revised to enhance the strength of the top hook.
